Macron to sign pact targeting cyber war

French President Emmanuel Macron will commence an official visit to Australia on 2 May. The Federal Government has declined to comment on speculation that Macron will sign a cyber-security agreement on the first day of his three-day visit. However, senior intelligence sources have indicated that the proposed agreement will be similar to one that Australia and the UK recently finalised. The cyber-security agreement with France would be Australia’s first with a country that is not a member of the Five Eyes intelligence network,
